TagsTagsWithout further ado, here’s our post-debate poll: [Poll moved to more recent thread...] UPDATE at 6/5/07 8:32:13 pm: Kos Kidz agree: Ron Paul wins!
As the second half of the debate begins, featuring audience questions, here’s another poll asking a simple question about the upcoming post-debate poll. A meta-poll, if you will. [Poll]
Here’s another open thread for the debate, since the first one’s getting rather lengthy. I’m trying to decide if we should include Ron Paul in our post-debate poll and just let the Paulians go nuts...
LGF, Debate, Republicans, CNN
You can beg, you can plead, but it won’t do any good; the third Republican debate is happening now on CNN, with the same cast of characters as last time. Here’s our first open thread...
LGF, Debate, Republicans, CNN
Media Matters shill Eric Alterman was arrested tonight at the Democratic debate: CNN Political Ticker Columnist/author arrested in spin room. Goffstown, N.H. police say Alterman was in the spin room as a guest of the Creative Coalition and went to an area reserved for a private reception for WMUR-TV. Police say ...
Here’s a quick straw poll to see which Democratic candidate LGF readers think “won” the second debate. [Poll]
Here’s an open thread to discuss the Democrats debate, currently underway on CNN...
According to the latest Gallup poll, Ron Paul is the first choice of exactly zero percent of likely GOP voters: New Yorkers Continue to Lead 2008 Nomination Contests. I’m just sayin’. UPDATE at 5/22/07 6:36:34 pm: [Video]
In an MSNBC article ranking the Republican candidates, Ron Paul comes in dead last. And MSNBC’s only comment is priceless.
Here’s another silly internet petition being spammed by the Ron Paul supporters, at PetitionsOnline, where anyone can sign a petition as many times as they like, with whatever name and email address they like: Barring Ron Paul Violates Free Speech and the Electoral Process. Currently has over 10,000 signatures, and that ...
Since the loons are continuing to bay at the moon and insist Ron Paul really does have massive support (and I removed him from the poll because he was “winning” and I’m a neocon fascist Hitler) I spent more time on this than it’s worth and did some analysis of ...
The emails from Ron Paul supporters continue to pour in, including a very long, incredibly tedious “9/11 was an inside job” rant from a Canadian. In between expletives and ad hominems, many of these emailers tell me I’m dead wrong and/or lying about the poll spamming, that Paul really does ...
Here’s another Ron Paul supporter who’s trying to claim the victimhood mantle, conspiracy snake oil salesman Alex Jones: Fox News Claim Ron Paul’s Online Voters Skewed Text-Message Only Poll! And at LiveLeak: Nice crowd Ron Paul’s running with.
Here’s the Ron Paul vs. Rudy Giuliani fracas in its entirety. It’s a pretty real couple of minutes, as these things go. I loved Mitt Romney trying to get his 30 seconds in at the end. [Video]
Here’s an interesting comparison: the two post-debate LGF polls for the GOP candidates. In the poll following the first debate, Mitt Romney came out significantly ahead of Rudy Giuliani. (And you can also see the effects of Ron Paul’s supporters spamming the poll.) [Poll temporarily removed: 20070503-gop-debate] But in the second debate, ...
Former Ron Paul Campaign Coordinator Eric Dondero is declaring against his former boss, after last night’s debate. (Hat tip: atman.) UPDATE at 5/16/07 11:29:50 am: Unsurprisingly, Ron Paul has a lot of support at left-wing hate site Democratic Underground: Ron Paul Supporters Spamming Our Poll Again (little green footballs) LOL.
I warned them. I’m going to be removing Ron Paul’s name from any further LGF straw polls, because his supporters are deliberately spamming our polls to make it appear as if Paul has more support than he does. Be aware that his results in the poll immediately preceding are not ...
[The poll has been moved to here.] UPDATE at 5/15/07 8:43:31 pm: The best moment from the debate: Video: Rudy blasts Ron Paul’s apology for 9/11. UPDATE at 5/16/07 9:01:03 am: Ron Paul’s name is now off this poll, because his supporters are trying to use LGF to build a false impression that he’s ...
The first thread is filling up fast, so here’s a second one to discuss the GOP debate...
The Republican presidential debate is about to start, no matter how much you plead for mercy. Judging from our pre-debate straw poll, Rudy Giuliani still has a lot of support from LGF readers going into this. We’ll see how things go with an intelligent person (Brit Hume) moderating. And please, Ron ...
Here’s a quick straw poll to see where the GOP candidates stand with LGF readers, in advance of the second debate this evening. [Poll]
Ace brings up a great idea. Just as Chris Matthews asked for a show of hands at the Republican debate to see which candidates didn’t believe in evolution, how about a show of hands at the next Democratic debate to see which candidates have an “open mind” about whether 9/11 ...
So. Who “won?” [Poll] UPDATE at 5/3/07 6:35:47 pm: MSNBC chooses their most deranged commentator, Keith Olbermann, for the post-debate wrap-up. Anyone surprised? UPDATE at 5/4/07 10:29:38 am: I see Ron Paul supporters are trying to stack the vote. I’m sure there’s a link on a blog somewhere pointing people to our poll, but it’s ...
The debate’s about to begin on MSNBC with the dreaded Chris Matthews hosting. Here’s an open thread, as Rudy Giuliani gives the first statement... UPDATE at 5/3/07 5:28:01 pm: OK, my jaw has now officially dropped. The guy from Politico.com just asked Mitt Romney, “What do you dislike most about America?” UPDATE at ...
It seems like American politics has become one perpetual election campaign, uninterrupted by any actual governing except of the negative kind. Did we used to have debates a year and a half out from an election, or am I just dreaming of a more peaceful, idyllic time? Anyway, tonight’s the first ...
